Yes, this is true.... The LED turns green on 99% and never touches 100%. But i did not care much about it as I was more interested in flashing ROMS...though this is a problem.... I have also ordered Anker Batt... waiting for the courier...

I noticed mine did this last night. I just kept it plugged in and it eventually hit 100%. I took about 9 hours for it to hit 100%. Hope its not like that every time. Ill be finding out tomorrow.

well it hit 100 even when the led was green

I've noticed that the discharge is also a bit strange even on OEM battery. My battery varies very much. Sometimes when I reboot I get 5-10% more juice after boot without putting it to charge

yes same here....what can b causing it.....can it b smthing wrong in s-off procedure

Could it be something to do with the 2.3.3? Cause my battery acted strange even S-ON so I don't think it's the S-OFF procedure itself that caused this. Might be something something to do with battery drivers or something?

AFAIK Li-Ion batteries should never be charged to 100% because it shortens their life, most phones have a safety-mechanism to prevent overcharging.
Its intended to stop charging at 95% to 99%, but will almost always show that the battery is charged to 100% so the customer wont complain about it.
yes HTC is lieing to us, but for our own satisfaction.
So after we flashed the CWM recovery this "feature" is not there anymore and we can see the true charging state.
By plugging the power in and out over and over again to reach 100% you just damage your battery with those short charging cycles.
I read a interrestion thread about it in the Nexus S forums awhile ago and Wikipedia seems to confirm it.
I hope I could help you.

Phone powers off when using camera flash

If I use the camera and have the flash on, and the battery is less than about 75% charged, the phone shuts off and won't turn back on until I pull the battery.
Often, when the phone powers back up after this, it shows the battery is almost dead, or at least significantly lower than before - I've seen it go from 70% to 15% a few times after this. It's done this with every ROM I've had, including stock Gingerbread and ICS, but it used to only do it if the battery was close to dead. Now I pretty much can't use the flash unless it's fresh off the charger or plugged in.
I'm thinking the battery is shot, would I be correct in this assumption? If so, can I use any Nexus S battery, or do I need to use a 4G specific battery? It's the Sprint 4G model.
Thanks!

If anyone cares, I got a new battery. Camera now works reliably, and I now get more than 6-8 hours out of a charge. Snagged the Anker 1600 mAh battery from Amazon.

While I was out today (about 3 hours), 4G was on, and I had music streaming as well. Running JellyBean (CM10 Experimental) with Air Kernel @ 1.2 GHz.
Think it's safe to say my battery was shot - it was a Sprint-branded battery that came with the phone, but I got it used, and the person I got it from last year got it as a refurb.

When was the last time u reset battery stats in the old battery since its supposed to be done at least every time u flash a new ROM or if in same ROM for some time do it about once each month....
And what ROM where u using and what camera ..... stock or market APP?

One of the Google developers came out awhile back and stated there's no reason to reset battery stats, ever. TWRP 2.2 doesn't even have the option anymore. Plus the phone kept powering off when I'd use the flash on the old battery.
I'm using Burns' CM10 Experimental (8/6) with Air Kernel, but I've had this issue with every rom, including stock (as stated in the OP). Problem happened with stock camera app and every 3rd party camera app, also happened if I used the LED as a flashlight. When it's happening across multiple ROMs, I think it's a safe bet to say it's a hardware problem.

..

The phone was a refurb that I bought used, and came with a Sprint-branded battery when I bought it. But yeah, I was basically asking someone to verify what I was thinking - which you just did.
Here's the battery it came with:
Anyway, several days on the Anker battery now, and no complaints at all. Battery life is easily tripled, though this screenshot was taken with me sitting on wifi all day. It seems to hit 70-80% about when the old battery would die. Remember I'm running an early experimental build of CM10, with a mild overclock.

Is the cable loose in the socket of your phone?

try a different cable
although i never had any trouble with the official opo cable i did find out that certain cables don't let the phone charge very fast, even if you use the right charger
you can also always start an RMA request to get a new cable and/or charger if you are shure the problem sits there

I'm having a similar issue i get the feeling that it is potentially an app issue, however I haven't seen any thing in my battery stat reports so far. I plan to monitor it a little more closely this week to see if i catch any thing suspicious.

Turn your phone off and charge it that way, its deffo gonna be quicker but see if its much quicker. if so you have a dodgy app mate

I agree with this approach. In my case it seems to be app related, and from what i observed The prime contributor to the change in charge discharge rate is Spotify for my setup.

Battery draining 50 to 5% in 10 mins

I've had my S7 (SM-G930W8) since Jan of last year so it's just passed the warranty period and my battery lasts less than 6-7 hours. It'll literally drop from 50-60% down to 5% in 10 minutes. I'll literally have it in my pocket, take it out to check the time or something and it'll be at 50%, then a few minutes later check it again and it's down to 5%.
I don't keep it plugged in after its finished charging, I use the original charger with a new USB cable. I close apps after I'm done using them. I keep Bluetooth/Nfc off and use only 4G.
I'm pretty sure the battery is dying but on the off chance it's not I thought I'd post here to see if there's some other solution. A couple weeks ago I even let the battery discharge a couple times until it shut off and turned it back on after it hit 100%

Have you tried battery recalibration? Also just order a battery off of eBay for 15 or 20 bucks n throw it in yourself. No big deal. Just don't mess with your screen, they aren't very tough.

Yes as I stated in the original post, I let my phone discharge until it shut itself off and then charged it to 100%, which is how you recalibrate the battery. This has had no effect and the battery will still drop in a very short time.
I also have a cracked screen so replacing the battery would be a difficult task to accomplish without further cracking the screen. Not to mention those $15 batteries on eBay or even Amazon are likely knockoffs and will cause even more problems.

Poco x3 NFC nowhere near fast charging

So, here's my issue. Original cable N brick, charges almost nothing. Putting the brick N cable into my old not fast charging supported phone gives 1200 mA.
Unbelievable N here almost nothing.

I have the same issue for like 2 months now. It comes and goes on its own. But when it does come, it messes my life up. Like today, it came back. It took my phone 7 HOURS to go from 30% to 64%.
Have you by any chance resolved it? If so, can you elaborate, please?

No I didn't,it works once a while then It turned to **** more often. I even bought another cable ( always same) it's Very strange . I decided to use it jow as 2nd phone only ,it's a pity because I like Poco all the way but charge all day is useless. It's either software related or something is wrong with the charging port ( but I cleaned a million times with a toothpick and even used a blower but it still doesn't work reliable. So I gave up on it. Wish you more luck!

12.5 update causing this... My phone stop charging at 90 percent... Only way to get it full charge to 100% is by plugged it to USB desktop...

I'm having the exact same problems. My original lead that came with the phone I can get to use fast charge fine but any other lead I've used just refuses to charge at a reasonable level at all. Last week I bought another official Xiaomi lead, the exact same as what I've got now. First few hours it was charging up very well indeed but next day barely anything.
This is incredibly frustrating because I know I can get fast charge to work but the lead I got originally with the phone is falling apart now. Honestly have no idea how to solve this.
